FT Global 200 executive pay DATASET 2015

In addition to purchasing the report Worldwide Executive Compensation 2015: Survey of FT Global 200 Companies, we are also making available the raw data (in Excel format) that informs our findings. This includes information on 1,339 executive and non-executive directors in 182 companies from 25 countries.

Making cross-country comparisons of complex executive remuneration packages in the world’s largest companies in 25 different countries made it necessary to collect a multitude of different variables. In addition, companies needed to be further classified to make sure all data comparisons are like-for-like. What’s more numerous currency conversions were necessary so all the data is presented in the original currency as well as in GBP.

As a result, the data includes over 150 columns including:

• Company data – sector, turnover, market capitalisation, year-end date, number of employees
• Director data – age, position, start date, part-/full-year
• Actual salary rates
• Directors’ shareholdings and their value
• Directors’ headline pay amounts, realised pay and incentive awards (in both the original currency and GBP)
• All headline remuneration figures (single-figure in the UK or equivalent) – salary, fixed allowances; benefits, annual and deferred bonus, matching shares, LTIPs, share options, pension payments, values and supplements, miscellaneous payments
• All realised remuneration – salary, bonus received, shares and share options vested and exercised
• Target and maximum bonus in monetary value and as a percentage of salary
• Share and option awards – number of time-based awards, performance-based awards, matching awards, dividend awards, SARs, SAYE awards and the exercise and grant prices relating to grants and awards in the original currency and GBP
• All such incentive awards expressed as a percentage of salary
• Share and option awards that have vested and been exercised – number of time-based awards vesting, performance-based awards vesting, matching awards vesting, dividend awards vesting, SARs awards vesting, SAYE awards vesting and the exercise and vesting prices relating to the vested incentives making it possible to calculate the amounts realised in the original currency and GBP
• All incentive awards and vested amounts expressed as a percentage of salary
• Realised remuneration levels.

All fields are supplemented with comments to provide greater background to the findings.
